My 2010 F150 will not start but honks 6 times and led flashes twice. It's a Ford dealer installed Gen 2 unit. I've read previous threads on this problem and it specifies that it's in valet mode? I tried doing what the instructions said to do to reset the issue which is to turn key on press brake then hit the remote start button 3 times. Unfortunately this does not work. I have also read that there is a reset button which I have found but do not know the sequence of events for this button any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Which remote start do you have?

 

Uhhh..........

Am I missing something here? Are there different ones?

 

Ford dealer installed gen2 unit my mistake

 

DEALER installed - thank you.

Have you asked the dealer for advice?

 

I have . They mentioned it's in the settings and they could set it for Dealership fee. That's why I'm looking for any help on this forum if anyone knows the sequence to reset back from Valet.

 

Have you tried disconnecting the battery for a while to reset the computer?

 

My 2010 didn't have any factory installed RS options on the order sheet. I looked when I ordered it. I knew (assumed) that he meant a fomoco RS.

OP still didn't answer the "which one" question. There are 3 fomoco RS options.




6 button, with alarm.






Single button, basic one way.






Bi Directional 2 button.

 

Canadianelbow ....6 button with alarm Gen 2 is the one I have. Didn't realize for a 2010 f150 that there were 3 different rs options thanks for bringing it to my attention.
SmokeRoss....will give that a try and let you know

 

from the 6-button owner's manual:

To engage the service/valet mode, turn the ignition key to the ON (RUN) position
and press the 2 button on the PowerCode remote control transmitter. The system
will begin flashing the dash mounted status indicator in a double-flash pattern
indicating that the system is in Service mode.

To return the system to its normal operating mode, turn the ignition key to
the ON (RUN) position and press the 2 button on the PowerCode remote control
transmitter again. The status indicator will shut off, indicating that the system is in
now in its normal operating mode.

 

Thanks SteveVFX4 took all of 6 seconds and all is back to normal! Thanks to all others that had responded to try and help me out!

SteveVFX4.....I never did receive the 6 button owner's manual from the Dealership........Thanks again.

 

On the settings note, if you pm me an email address, I will be happy to send you a pdf on how to change the many different settings available. It's pretty straight forward stuff, but without the instruction sheet, there is no way to ever guess them.

 

PM sent
